Verdict
FINAL LIBERATION gained his first success in June off a mark of 53 and will be 28lb higher here. Like so many from his yard he's improved since stepping up in trip and probably has plenty more to give. Halifax didn't enjoy being fitted with blinkers at York and is much better than he showed that day and High On A Hill stays this trip really well though he has ground to make up on Ethics Girl on their run at Wolverhampton last December and John Berry's mare can prove a threat. Gerard Butler's French recruit Red Anthem found 1m2f much too short on his UK debut and can do much better though softer conditions may be required.
